I use Mares Volos. I`ve enjoyed them so far but I haven`t had much to compare them to. I took the dive shops recommendation as a newbie. I caught some grief from the instructors because they "have holes in them, how can you get any speed" but the fins are huge and when I wanted to kick it up a notch, I could speed with the best of them. I`ll probably want to try some other designs. ============= http://www.njscuba.net/gear/eqpt_01_mask_fins_snorkel.html
